  • Recently, interest in emotional technology has escalated and its application has extended to many fields, from both an industrial (product) and service (culture, tourism, medical, education, advertising) perspective. Moreover, culture has become a fundamental aspect of modern industry, playing key roles in: gaming, exhibitions, performances, sports, tourism, design, edutainment, as well as various content distribution industries. The prospect of applying emotional technology for cultural content industries makes up for more than half of the 'plan-manufacture-distribution-marketing' process, and thereby also serves as driving force for the growth of a nation. The primary objective of the following research is analyze successful cases from the past through utilization of emotional technology, and to speculate on efficient directions for future research into developing emotional contents. To achieve this, some of the key terms have been defined and elaborated for the sake of clarity. The terms are as follows: emotion, emotion engineering, science of emotion, emotional technology, and emotional contents. Furthermore, studies were conducted based on the six different fields surrounding CT R&D to observe how projects involving emotional technology have succeeded both on a national and global scale. Based on this analysis, this research aims to develop personalized 'Concierge' service-providing contents, contents designed to maximize performance ability of humans, and contents that could be controlled simply via emotion to effectively spread the culture of Korea by focussing on 'fusion' content development. The following research data may hopefully serve as a basic reference to industries navigating towards emotional content development.

  • These days, the researches related with the emotional robots are actively investigated and in progress. And human language, expression, action etc. are merged in the emotional robot to understand the human emotion. However, there are so many sound sources and background noise around the robot, that the robots should be able to separate the mixture of these sound sources into the original sound sources, moreover to understand the meaning of voice of a specific person. Also they should be able to turn or move to the direction of a specific person to observe his expression or action effectively. Until now, the researches on the localization and separation of sound sources have been so theoretical and computative that real-time processing is hardly possible. In this reason for the practical emotional robot, fast computation should be realized by using simple principle. In this paper the methods for detecting the direction of sound sources by using the phase difference between peaks on spectrums, and the separating the sound sources by using fundamental frequency and its overtones of human voice, are proposed. Also by using these methods, it is shown that the effective and real-time localization and separation of sound sources in living room are possible.

  • Various researches on content sensibility with the development of digital contents are under way. Emotional research on fonts is also underway in various fields. There is a requirement to use the content expressions in the same way as the content, and to use the font emotion and the textual sensibility of the text in harmony. But it is impossible to select a proper font emotion in Korea because each of more than 6,000 fonts has a certain emotion. In this paper, we analysed emotional classification attributes and constructed the Hangul font recommendation system. Also we verified the credibility and validity of the attributes themselves in order to apply to Korea Hangul fonts. After then, we tested whether general users can find a proper font in a commercial font set through this emotional recommendation system. As a result, when users want to express their emotions in sentences more visually, they can get a recommendation of a Hangul font having a desired emotion by utilizing font-based emotion attribute values collected through the crowdsourced method.

  • This is paper aims to figure out the way movies and engineering have communicated and the right direction for better communication between them. Engineering no longer should be treated as playing a key role when it comes to film making. Engineering is essential in making films look real. It means that movies gain credibility from utilizing engineering, which all other types of arts also seek after. Films can be resonated better through mutual communication with engineering. The paper takes a close look at emotional aspects to figure out what the new direction of communication between movies and engineering is. People's lives shown in films and the material world that engineering represents are mingled to attain the emotional oneness between the two. This can be easily observed in Japanese movies where robots and humans have a close relationship or recent films whose theme is emotional exchange among humans and robots. This kind of contact leads us to explore newly found humans' position that was brought about in the wake of development in engineering and existential conditions that humans need to have accordingly. Artificial intelligence and neurology sectors that the engineering field is today earnestly working on are in line with it. Therefore, this article seeks to find out the meaning and value of communication between movies and engineering when establishing the fresh mankind model based on emotions and pursuit of diversity.

  • In this paper, we verify the relation between elements (active and inactive) of Russell's emotional dimension ("A Circumplex Model") to propose a new representing method. Russell's emotional dimension expresses emotional words (happy, joy, sad, nervous, etc.) as a point on the two dimensions (Arousal and Valence). It is most commonly used in many filed such as Science of Emotion & Sensibility, Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), and Psychology etc. But other researchers have insisted that Russell's emotional dimension have to be modified because of its inherent problems. Such problems included the possibility of mixed feelings, the difference of emotion and sensibility, and the difference of Arousal axis and Valence axis. Therefore, we verify relationship of A Circumplex Model's elements (active and inactive) and find how to people express their Arousal feelings using survey. We finally propose new method to express emotion in Russell's emotional dimension. Using this method, we can solve Russell's problems and compensate other researches.
